Also, it's been many years, but Corel Painter was definitely worth the money. It wasn't PS, but it was very good and 1/5 the price.
Ahh yes.. but you forget that "Painter" was just another of Corel's "aquisitions"
Seems Corel has made quite a career of buying other peoples cool stuff.
Painter was made by a company called "Fractal Design" ...long since defunct...
And of course many of Corel's best products now were just purchased from "MetaCreations" (KPT, Bryce, Poser etc...)
Far as I know Corel's only real contributions (as opposed to purchases) were "Draw" (and associted suite) and Wordperfect.. (remember Word Perfect?)
Anyway.. I'm not a big fan of big software conglomerates that buy up all the good stuff and call it there own
